That Name with "(Dalai)" in itself seems not right to me - looks like (for example): Daai Loi (HK) Film Company -
I suppose the "Dalai" was ment as the alias for "Daai Loi" (BTW: If "Dalai" is 1 word - why "Daai Loi" are 2?)
Of course this is a small matter - just in case there are more such similar cases...

So Daai Loi should be "Daailoi" too

Do as You like Daailoi is Dalai and Daai Loi is Da Lai -
but still: "Daai Loi (Dalai) Film Company" WAS WRONG
You can call in Putonghua or in Cantonese but not both mixed together

For example:
?????????? is called "Sun Sun Film Enterprises Ltd" and not Sun Sun (Xin-Xin) Film Enterprises Ltd.
but Xin-Xin could be the Mandarin alias

I can't help it if You don't catch my meaning

When the entry of the prod. co. was created 15 years ago, it was not possible adding aliases. So editors mixed the names.

Anyway nobody can touch names, titles, prod. companies without previous warning in the forum. That is my meaning.
